How to Email a Picture to Your T-Mobile Cell Phone

By Michaele Curtis

Your T-Mobile phone can receive email messages as text messages on the handset. You can use this feature for sending pictures directly from your computer to a cell phone. This is useful if the T-Mobile phone account doesn’t have a data plan or receive email messages on it. Instead, the picture message is delivered as a text message to the cell phone.

Step 1

Log in to your email account on your computer. Click the link to compose a new email message.

Step 2

Enter the email address to the T-Mobile phone you want to send the picture file to. The email address will be the T-Mobile phone number followed by “@tmomail.net”. For example, if the T-Mobile phone number is 555-555-1234, you would enter “5555551234@tmomail.net”.

Step 3

If you have any message that goes along with the picture file, type it into the body of the email message.

Step 4

Click the link to attach a picture file to the email message. Browse the popup window to find the picture file in question. Select it and click “OK.”

Step 5

Double-check the email message and make sure that everything is correct. Click the link to send the email message to the T-Mobile phone.
